Candidates’ Stances on Social Security
Social Security is quickly becoming one of the most important issues in the upcoming election, but it is still difficult to find out each candidates official stance on the system. Baby Boomers are retiring in droves and will continue to retire in large numbers over the next couple decades meaning more people than ever will be collecting on their Social Security soon. It is also no secret that Social Security has been facing a solvency problem with many official studies showing that they will run out of funds by the 2030s. These facts together make it baffling that the candidates are not more upfront and vocal about their proposals in this area, many candidates, such as Trump, not even having an official statement on the topic.
